One and a Half Men
16-JUL-2008:
A few days ago, while I was working in the kitchen, I overheard Dominic and his daddy playing "masak-masak" in the room, using Lego blocks as the ingredients.
Dominic: Salt!
Daddy: Nah, here (I think he passed him a Lego block, or some other toy)
Dominic: Ji-ji-ji (makes the sound of sprinkling salt). Tomato sauce!
Daddy: Nah ...
Dominic: Ji-ji-ji. Sugar!
(And on and on ...)
Daddy: What is it?
Dominic: Pizza! Daddy, make it warm ...
Daddy: Make it warm?
Dominic: Put in microwave. Make it warm.
(Dominic walks into the kitchen with his paint pallete, puts the paint pallete on the little window that looks out to the living room.)
Dominic: Tuit!! (makes beeping sound while pretending to press a button and goes back to find daddy)
(After a while ....)
Dominic: Tuit-tuit-tuit! Okay! (and walks into the kitchen to retrieve his pizza from the microwave)
Dominic: Hot! Hot! (and walks back into the room to serve daddy his pizza)
I am now tempted to buy him some real "masak-masak" toys. I've always wanted to but didn't get round to doing it. Recently, he's been using his Lego blocks to make ice-creams, chicken, pancake, etc.
